The Canvass and The BallContinuation...............................................What time is it...?............
Key starts to approach and meet the audience with Minho by his side; and as he does, he would glance at Minho to check.
He chuckles at the sight of Minho gaping and would quickly closes upon realization.
A couple of hours passed and Key could feel his boredom rising and this time as Minho is not by his side, searches and gasps when he sees the other seated on a table few feet away from the food area calmly enjoying his food unmindful and in his own world – he smiles and thinks…
“Wow…
He’s so cute like a kid…”
Slowly he walks towards Minho and hopes the latter notices him but to his amazement surprised that the other does not even notice his presence approaching and so he says softly…
“I might as well…”
Key gets his plate however is stopped by the usher…
“Sir Key…
Let me do it for you…”
“Oh…
(waves his hand)
Don’t bother I can manage…Please…”
“Are you sure Sir…?”
“(nods) Yes…I can manage…
But if you may, coffee is fine for two people...
(points at where Minho is located)
and please bring it there in thirty minutes – where I will be seated…”
“Yes Sir Key…”
Key gets food for himself then after goes to where Minho is then quietly sits beside him and says…
“Seems you’re enjoying too much that you don’t notice me…”
Minho almost chokes as he recognizes Key’s voice even without looking at him.
Recovering from it, he looks at Key and smiles saying…
“Hi…Sorry…
I got hungry…
And that I was embarrassed to tell while
you were busy entertaining the visitors so
I kind of manage myself…”
Key: (giggles) Oh…It is okay…
I am even thankful that you were able to handle
yourself well…
Minho: (scratches his head) Ooff…
I was so embarrassed …
I was constantly in awe of most of the people here as
they all look expensive…
They all have an expensive aura you know…
Key: (laughs and nods) yeah…
They are all pretty much wealthy…
Everyone of them…
I know some of their names as they are my clients…
There are regulars, people seldom but enormously big
spender, and there are some who are just extraordinary
and quite extreme about arts…
Minho: (jerks his head forward confused)
What do you mean by the classifications
you have just stated…
Mind explaining it to me...?
Key: (waves hand) Oh…
People who just love arts…
I mean…
Minho: (sighs) Key…
Obviously I know that but I want to know what do you
mean by regulars in relation with money…
Key: (sighs) Aaaiii…
Minho: (raises his right hand then wiggles his forefinger at Key)
And please…
Please take note that wealthy people spends wealthy too…
Like king’s ransom…
Key: (nodding his head amazed by Minho’s awareness)
Okay…But just don’t gasp when your mouth is full…
Minho: Ooosshh…
What do you think of me…
Like a kid…? Naïve…?
(acting confident) Oooiiii…
I was not born in genesis time…
I might be shock or astounded because honestly,
it is impossible for someone ordinary like me
to have a chance to meet...
(spreads his left hand and points towards the visitors)
These kind of elite people…
I mean, yeah…
I guess it is so common for you but me…?
Aaahhh…aahhh…First time…
To be honest, If I get to spend more time with you –
I will experience a lot of first time…
Key: (interrupts to avoid the conversation getting deeper)
Okay…okay…
Regulars meaning – they’d spend at a range from
one million to five million …
(looks at Minho and controls his laugh when upon
saying the figure gasps)
Minho…I told you no gasping…
Minho: (covers his mouth) Holy molly…
Ssshhhwweeeettt…one million…won…?
Key: (giggles and shakes his head)

Minho: (muffles his mouth with a table napkin)
Hhhmmmmfff….cchhoollaaarsss…
